So yesterday was all about this:
🙂
And in between replying to a steady stream of comments on this blog — thank you one and all for celebrating my book cover with me! — I also edited a magazine and racked up almost 4300 words in my work-in-progress.
So, yes, I’m tired — but in an oh-yesterday-was-a-wonderful-day kind of way.
Which leads to this blog post.

1. Read the list below.

Promise me you won’t send out the guys in the white suits to get me…Are you going to call this exercise What Would Freud Do? 🙂
The answers are rather revealing … but I’m not analyzing.
